"Fire Master?Honorary Minister?" Lin Liang looked blankly at Hei Kai and Fang Yu, the two ministers and deputy ministers of the Shangyang City Branch of the Instrument Alliance, and didn't understand what the two were saying.

Seeing Lin Liang's reaction, Fang Yu and Hei Kai naturally showed a look of understanding, it was obvious that Huo Xing did not tell Lin Liang about his identity, it seemed that he had the intention of sharpening Lin Liang! At that moment, the two glanced at each other, and Hei Kai opened his mouth and said, "Lin Xiaoyou probably doesn't know the predecessor of our Instrument Alliance, right?"

"The ...... of the Instrument Alliance Predecessor?" Lin Liang asked suspiciously, "Isn't the Instrument Alliance composed of the entire Big 6 smelters, isn't its predecessor a smelter?"

Hearing Lin Liang's words, Hei Kai smiled and said mysteriously: "You are only half right, the Instrument Alliance is indeed composed of smelters, but the predecessor I said was the appearance of the smelters before the formation of the Instrument Alliance!"

"Before forming a weapon alliance?" Lin Liang shook his head, and honestly arched his hand towards Hei Kai and said, "I still hope to teach you!"

Seeing Lin Liang's attitude, Hei Kai and Fang Yu both had a smile on their faces. Lin Liang's talent is beyond doubt, so before they met, they were both a little worried about Lin Liang's temperament, after all, such a talent can be regarded as a young man's ambition, right? But at this time, the two of them had no such worries at all.

"I'll talk about this matter!" nodded towards Hei Kai, Fang Yu opened his mouth and said: "The Instrument Alliance is an alliance composed of all the smelters on the Big 6, no matter what, the smelter is the foundation of the Instrument Alliance, and before the birth of the Instrument Alliance, there were countless small Instrument Alliances on the Big 6 itself!"

Seeing Lin Liang's blank face, Fang Yu smiled and continued: "The so-called Small Instrument Alliance is an existence similar to the Instrument Alliance, but the scale is relatively small, and generally four or five smelters can be regarded as a Small Instrument Alliance when they get together!"

"Lin Xiaoyou, you may not know, the inheritance of our smelter industry is very different from those pretentious alchemists. For those alchemists, what they need is not only talent, but also a little luck!"

"Luck?" Lin Liang seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up and said, "You mean the spiritual power attribute?"

"That's good!" Fang Yu glanced at Lin Liang appreciatively, and said with a smile: "For alchemists, they need fire attribute spiritual power, and there must be a trace of wood attribute spiritual power mixed with that fire attribute spiritual power, only such a person can become an alchemist, and this harsh condition is also their pretentious capital." And talent is second best in their eyes. ”

"And we smelters are the opposite, we need a strong body, as well as talent, we don't care about those so-called spiritual attributes, for a smelter, he only needs two things, talent and perseverance. Talent shows how fast he can go on the road of smelting, and perseverance is a testament to how far he can go on the road of smelting!"

Hearing this, Lin Liang nodded thoughtfully, he was indeed talented in smelting, and Lin Liang himself was aware of this, but if it weren't for Lin Liang's continuous learning and crazy smelting in the Instrument Pavilion along the way, I'm afraid Lin Liang would not have reached the current level.

"Lin Liang, do you know that in the eyes of smelters and alchemists, there is something that is actually more important than talent, perseverance, and luck?" as he spoke, Fang Yu said mysteriously again.

Lin Liang shook his head, he really didn't know this.

"It's inheritance!" Hei Kai took over the conversation and said, "Whether it is a smelter or an alchemist, there is only one channel for the number to multiply, and that is to accept apprentices. Both smelters and alchemists attach great importance to the name of master and apprentice, and those who rebel against the master will not end well in the end, even if their talent is high. ”

"And different smelters have different opinions and styles in smelting, and the disciples they teach will naturally change on the path of the master, so that from generation to generation, the path taken by the final smelter is naturally very different from the path taken by the previous master. ”

"Then in this way, the so-called small alliance is actually composed of master and apprentice, after all, even if the concept is different between master and apprentice, the difference will not be too big, and there is the love of master and apprentice, and they can get along more harmoniously!" Lin Liang suddenly realized.

"Clever!" Hei Kai unceremoniously praised: "This kind of small instrument alliance composed of the relationship between master and apprentice generally existed in the entire big 6 before the establishment of the instrument alliance, until Lord Ye Yuntian appeared!" Speaking of the name Ye Yuntian, even though Hei Kai was now a fifth-order smelting master, there was still a deep sense of powerlessness rising in his eyes.

"Do you know what the disadvantages of this kind of small weapon alliance are?" Hei Kai took a deep breath and asked Lin Liang.

"Yes...... Isn't the upper beam right and the lower beam crooked?" Lin Liang hesitated, but still expressed his opinion: "This kind of small instrument alliance seems to be small, but in fact, the relationship is very solid. As the leader of this kind of small instrument alliance, the master's position is actually very large, and the influence on the people below is also the greatest, once the upper is not right, the lower will be crooked!"

"Not bad. Hei Kai nodded and said: "The smelters are all over the Big 6, and the number is twice as many as the alchemists, so many people, it is inevitable that scum and scum will appear, and the appearance of these people will often lead to the appearance of a group of scum scum, so in order to avoid ruining the name of the smelter because of these people, Ye Yuntian has the idea of forming an alliance!"

"Ye Yuntian ......" Although Lin Liang had seen a doppelganger phantom of this legendary smelter in the sealed land, and also helped him to get the spiritual vein scroll of the physical body rebirth technique, but thinking that Ye Yuntian resolutely decided to form a weapon alliance in order to keep the smelter's signboard at that time, Lin Liang still had a feeling of blood in his heart!

"Although the establishment of the Instrument Alliance is inseparable from Lord Ye Yuntian, I personally think that it is the words that Lord Ye Yuntian said that is the foundation of the establishment of the Instrument Alliance!" Fang Yu suddenly stood up and said solemnly: "Smelting together, ever-changing, but ever-changing, if you can gather the strengths of all families, the Great Dao can be expected! This is what Lord Ye Yuntian said when he was at the peak of the eighth-order smelter, and after saying that, he successfully advanced to the ninth-order smelter!"

"Yes!" Hei Kai also said with emotion: "It is said that Lord Ye Yuntian opened the furnace at the top of the entire Big 6, using the sky as the furnace, the earth as the material, and the spirit as the fire, and when the furnace opened, he entered the realm of the ninth-order smelter, the sky rained spiritual rain, the earth bloomed with ten thousand flowers, and all the spiritual veins vibrated together, called the Emperor of the Instrument!"

"Emperor Qi!" Hearing this, Lin Liang was also shocked, as if he had seen the scene at that time again, the birth of the first emperor of the human race!

"After that, Lord Ye Yuntian invited the smelters of various schools to gather, and finally traced back to the source, and settled down on the eight major veins in the smelters, each of which had different techniques and characteristics, and the Instrument Alliance was originally composed of these eight smelting veins!" Hei Kai then spoke.

"Smelting Eight Veins ......" seemed to think of something, Lin Liang suddenly exclaimed: "The Instrument Alliance is composed of the Eight Refining Pulses, so in this case, the eight branches of the Instrument Alliance ......"

Hei Kai nodded, confirming Lin Liang's guess. Then he said: "The eight branches of the Instrument Alliance are built by the eight smelting veins in the headquarters of the Instrument Alliance, each vein occupies a branch, and our Shangyang City branch is the fire refining vein of the eight smelting veins!"

Speaking of which, Lin Liang finally understood the relationship between Huo Xing and the Shangyang City Branch, Huo Xing, Huo Xing, presumably Huo Xing came from the headquarters of the Instrument Alliance, no wonder Fang Yu and Hei Kai would say that Huo Xing was the honorary minister of the Shangyang City Branch of the Instrument Alliance. Thinking of this, Lin Liang couldn't help but snicker in his heart, a minister ran to a low-level sect to be an elder, regardless of his own branch, no wonder he added a prefix of honor in front of it!

"Then which vein does Lord Ye Yuntian belong to?" Hei Kai said about the eight veins of the Instrument Alliance Smelting, and Lin Liang couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Lord Ye Yuntian doesn't belong to any lineage!" This time it was Minister Fang Yu who spoke, only to see a faint look of longing flash in Fang Yu's eyes, and explained: "When the Instrument Alliance was founded, the master of each of the eight veins of smelting was an eighth-order smelter, and Lord Ye Yuntian's smelting style and technique actually fused the existence of each vein, so strictly speaking, Lord Ye Yuntian did not belong to any vein!"

"Moreover, Lord Ye Yuntian said before leaving that he would not accept anyone as an apprentice in his life, but anyone who can integrate the smelting of the eight veins can be regarded as his personal disciple. And after Lord Ye Yuntian left Lord Yuntian 6, no ninth-order smelter was born so far, and the highest could only stop at the eighth order, and he could never reach the realm of Lord Ye Yuntian. ”

Speaking of this, Fang Yu also had a trace of regret in his words, now it seems that the eight veins in the instrument alliance are gathered, stable and stable, but in fact, since Lord Ye Yuntian left, the instrument alliance has fallen into a state of no dragons, and there has never been a new ninth-order smelter born, and no one in each vein is convinced, which can be seen from the friction between the various branches!

Of course, this is not to say that after Ye Yuntian left, the Instrument Alliance became a mess. In fact, the various rules set by Ye Yuntian after the establishment of the Instrument Alliance, including the certification assessment of smelters, etc., all took into account the situation after he left the Instrument Alliance, so in general, the Instrument Alliance is still very stable.

"Is there anything that the two ministers specially asked me to do that Lin Liang needed?" After saying so much, Lin Liang suddenly remembered that he had been specially called, and asked bluntly at the moment.

Hei Kai said with a smile: "There is indeed something that needs your help, I almost forgot about it after saying so much just now!"

As he spoke, a serious look appeared on Hei Kai's face, and he said word by word: "I hope you can represent the smelters of our Shangyang City Branch and Hegu City Branch to conduct a discussion!"
